Windy City vs Cement grey
Windy City (Benjamin Moore) and Cement grey (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. The 7-point LRV gap — 24 for Cement grey vs 17 for Windy City — means Cement grey will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 8.7 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
